I met Rick Bruner through his father, Richard W Bruner. Dick was the first editor of the Budapest Week, as well as my mentor and friend.Rick Bruner, Tibor Szendrei and I are the three surviving founders of our newspaper. That's a sobering thought.Dick was the gray eminence of our little startup team. He convinced us it could be done. He introduced us to his wide circle of friends, and many of them became our contributors, supporters and friends.Rick and I had a contentious relationship, but as he reminds me on this episode, that was part of our magic.In the first six months of the paper, we struggled every week to fill a 16-page newspaper without an office, staff or even a reliable income.Rick and I soldiered on together through sleepless nights and impossible deadlines. We argued over headlines and commas and inspired each other to further effort.It never would have happened without Rick and Dick. Dick and Rick.

#2 - Rick Bruner

Howdy boys and girls! On this episode I got to hangout with my buddy Rick Bruner who is the general manager of the Virginia Beach Funny Bone. It was a lot of fun talking to him and picking his brain on everything.This episode we talked about a lot of different aspects of comedy, not just the performing aspect but the business side of things. We talked about what it has been like for Rick to watch this business change, progress, and evolve. This episode was great because it was really cool to watch and hear Rick retell and relive some of the best moments that he has been able to witness in the 17 years that he’s been involved in comedy.If you are a comedy fan, or a comedian that is aspiring to be more than just an open mic comic....this is the episode for you guys.

Episode XIII: “The Biz” w/Rick Bruner

Animal House. It invented the view of fraternities in movies. Heck, it could be argued that it even reshaped the fraternity experience on college campuses nationwide (even though it was based on real experiences that were tamed DOWN for the movie). No matter how you look at it, National Lampoon's Animal House is a groundbreaking comedy that stands the test of time. And, oh yeah. It's a car movie. Central to the plot of this movie is the 1964 Lincoln Continental with it's iconic suicide doors, trusted to Kent Dorfman by his brother... only for it to become THE DEATHMOBILE!  Joining us for this podcast is Rick Bruner. Rick knows his comedy. He's the manager of the Virginia Beach Funny Bone. He also grew up working around cars - including a time when he worked in a car museum that housed such iconic vehicles as the Muenster Coach, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and cars owed by Clark Gable and Greta Garbo. We have a lot of fun talking about the college experience, the cars, the comedy and trying to figure out how the Delta's ended up driving some of the cars they have in the movie. Make sure you subscribe to Reels and Wheels on iTunes or Stitcher and leave us some feedback! Find Rick at the Virginia Beach Funny Bone, where the best touring comics are always dropping in - www.vabeachfunnybone.com! Find us @ReelsandWheels, James @S2KJames and Sid @SidBridgeComedy on FaceBook or Twitter!
